Introduction
The Small Project Assistance (SPA) Program is a collaborative ef

fort of the Agency for International Development (AID) and Peace
Corps (PC). The SPA Program began in January of

1983 with the
signing of a Memorandum of Understanding between the two
agencies.
Since that time, 43 countries have negotiated Country
Agreements to participate in the SPA Program, each administering
a fund which supports small community projects.
Countries participating in the SPA program have an administrative
relationship with a USAID post in the country, and have at least
ten Peace Corps Volunteers serving in the country. The following
countries have participated in the SPA Program:
Africa
Inter-America PACEM
Benin Guinea Conakry Belize Fiji
Botswana Kenya Costa Rica

Kiribati
Burkina Lesotho
Dominican Morocco
Faso Liberia Repubic Nepal
Burundi
Malawi Eastern Papua New Guinea

Included in this report are abstracts of all the projects
received by Peace Corps/Washington during the period of October

SPA Field Projects
The SPA Program provides funding for community self-help

projects. Staff from the Peace Corps and the USAID missicn in
each country review and approve individual project requests fz'r
funding.
Project criteria are as follows:
1. The activity must be scheduled for completion within one year
of its implementation.
2. The estimated contribution of SPA funds toward completion of
the activity must not exceed $10,000.
3. It must involve development in the general areas of food
production, energy, small enterprise development and/or income
generation, or health.
4. It must not encourage continued reliance on external
assistance.
5. The project must be conceived and implemented in conjunction
with a local community organization or group.
After Peace Corps and USAID approve a project, the community and
the Volunteer complete an Individual Activity Agreement (IAA). A
copy of the proposal is sent to Washington where the attached
abstracts were prepared.
SPA program impact areas are defined as the following:
FP/IG - Food Production/Income Generation

SED/IG - Small Enterprise Development/Income Generation
FP - Food Production
Energy - Energy
Health - Health
All Health projects must also relate to one of the following:
Diarrheal Diseases and Immunization
Oral Rehydration Therapy (ORT) for infants
Immunization of infants and young children
Malaria and vector biology control
Maternal Health Care
Nutrition
Growth monitoring of infants and young children
Breastfeeding, weaning or Vitamin A
Water supply and sanitation
Health Education (materials development/adaptation/research)
The Role of the Volunteer in a Successful SPA Project
Success of an SPA project is determined by more than the end
product. The process of a community working together to address
an identified need is as much a part of the success as is the end
result.
Successful SPA projects enhance a community's ability to or

ganize, plan and make group decisions. The PCV can play an im
portant role in this process by acting as a "facilitator" rather
than a "doer". In this way, the Volunteer conveys technical
skills while increasing leadership capacity and self-reliance
within the community.
PCV's who have worked with SPA projects have identified the fol
lowing as factors which help to facilitate the accomplishment of
the project and ensure that the process of skill transference and
organizational development occurs.
Ownership of the Project -
A successful project is owned by the community group. While a
PCV brings skills that can help the community to define a
problem, identify a solution, tap resources, and implement the
activity, the community must feel that it owns the project. A
project is in danger when a PCV finds that s/he is the only one
working on the project, or is identifying the project as "mine".
Problem Identification -
A successful project addresses a clearly defined problem, one
that can be broken down to basic causes. A PCV's analytical
skills can be extremely useful in helping the community to
identify possible causes of a problem and to select the most ap

propriate solution and implementation strategy. For example, a
community may know that they have a shortage of grain. The PCV,
using a problem solving approach, can assist in identifying
whether the shortage is caused by poor seeds, inadequate water
supply, poor soil, insufficient technical skills, pests, lack of
labor, poor harvesting techniques, etc. Once the problem and the
causes have been identified, a useful project strategy can be
developed.
Planning -
Successful projects depend on thorough planning before implemen

tation. PCV's can help in the planning process by introducing
simple planning tools and by asking clarifying questions. The
community group, however, needs to be involved in

and take
responsibility for the planning.
Implementation -
Projects which have significant contributions from the community,
both in-kind and financial, are more likely to succeed. During
the implementation phase of

a project a PCV may be instrumental
in training participants in technical skills related to the
project. This transfer of skills is essential for the long term
success of the project.
The Proposal -
Whenever possible, the content of a proposal should be composed
by the community. This may mean translating the proposal form
in order to ensure understanding and encourage involvement amcng
community members.
The PCV can be helpful by assisting with the
organization and writing of the proposal.
Record Keeping -
SPA projects are funded with government money and must be
accounted for with proper receipts and vouchers. The PCV may be
more knowledgeable about these procedures and can be of
assistance to the community group.
Before a project request is submitted, arrangements are to be
made for handling the project money. Program funds for materials
and supplies should be paid directly to local vendors. In some
cases, however, this is not possible, and cash advances must be
given to the community group. A Volunteer may help the community
group open a bank account and establish a simple record keeping
system.
Monitoring and Evaluation -
Throughout the life of the project, the community group and the
PCV should monitor their progress towards the project's goals.
By continuing to monitor the project, the community organization
can make any adjustments necessary to ensure the ultimate
success.
For each SPA project, the group completes a final report which
reviews the project, determines whether the original goals were
met, identifies lessons learned and discusses benefits of the
project. While the final report may be written by the PCV,
recommendations and comments should be from community members.
